I'm too lazy to find the website or look up the codesbut throw them into google search, usually the first link that comes up will explain the code, list possible solutions and alternate solutions.

It it just throw the code on or did you clear them out recently and the light came back on?

P1000 just means if you went to smog your car and they plug in a code scanner or hook it up to a computer, the car has not gone through a drive cycle.

P0156 could mean one of two things. A catalytic converter that's going bad, or a lazy 02 sensor.Both could cause the P1000. Buy a new O2 sensor, clear the codes, should take care of both issues. Bank 2 is dirvers side, sensor 2 is after the cat. If the light kicks back on with the same problem, then your catalytic converter on that side is shot.
